Access on VPN -- seeking solutions

My client wants to make their Access 2007 database available to
offices around the country with multi-user permissions set to control
access to the tables and forms, etc. The easiest thing would be a
client/server app, but they are concerned that accessing the backend
on their VPN would be too slow.
We've discussed the possibility of publishing the forms to the
intranet with ASP, but I'm concerned that web development with Access
is a complex and costly bucket of worms, especially given the multi-
user settings and the fact that I don't have any experience with web
development. I've also heard web development might be easier with SQL
server.
I've heard there may be ways to go the client/server route that would
avoid the speed issues with VPN, possibly involving RDP?
I would welcome any thoughts about how best to attack this project,
especially thoughts on how best to make the client/server work without
performance problems.
